Sunny Murray: “ He (Bernard Stollman*) also released “Prophecy” after Albert died, without Albert’s signature, but because I also had a copy of the same tape I released mine through a company in Germany (“Albert Smiles with Sunny”, In Respect 39 501), as a correct move for me and Al. Bernard’s so-called son tried to put the stops on my album, and finally did. However my tape was better quality than his and also at the correct speed, so mine sounds better....“ *Bernard Stollman (July 19, 1929 - April 19, 2015) was an American lawyer and the founder of the ESP Disk record label.
